People who turned out to 
Monday night’s meeting of 
the St, Albert Social Credit 
League, hoping to learn the 
exact location of the pro- 
vince’s fourth university, 
came away disappointed, 

The Minister of Educa- 
tion, Hon, Robert Clark, who 
it was hoped would make the 
announcement, told a crowd 
of close to 200 assembled 
in the Morinville Recreation 
Centre that he was unable 
to do so because negotia- 
tions with one of the or= 
ganizations involved were 
not finalized, 


“These negotiations will 
be completed later this week, 
in all likelihood,’ he said, 
“Up until this morning, we 
had hoped this announcement 
could be made tonight.’’ 

What Mr, Clark was able 
to tell his audience was that 
one of the most important 
factors being considered in 
the choice of a site was the 
possibility of a tie-in with 
an existing orproposed 
transportation network on 
the north side of the city of 
Edmonton and also a tie-in 
with a possible rapid transit 
system,

ible, Alberta-based industry 
and professional people in

In order to get the uni- 
versity “off and running’ a 
committee will be set up 
within the next couple of 
weeks, probably consisting 
of the chairman of the board 
of governors, a board mem- 
ber and one or two indivi- 
duals, which will have the

“A person from this area 
will be on this committee 
and this person will be app- 
ointed within two weeks 
time,’’ Mr, Clark stated, 

Mr, Clark also confirmed 
that major areas of instruct- 
ion to be offered at the uni- 
versity will be the humanit- 
ies and social sciences, 

Mr, Clark’s remarks re~ 
garding the university were 
offered in answer to a quest-

Two-hour “hot seat” session for Clark 


School District No, 3, It was 
the first in a two-hour long 
barrage of questions levelled 
at the minister by a panel of 
five, 

In addition to Mr, Fraser, 
panel members were John.

Father Jan School in St, Alb-

ber of the Sturgeon School 
Board, Jim Kyle, a parent 
and resident of Alcomdale,

A sixth panelist, teacher 
Gerry Schick was unable to 
be present, 


In answer to further ques-

Clark stated that proposed 
regulations governing supp-

would likely be discussed by 
his department on Tuesday 
and final regulations mailed 
out to boards within the near 
future,

A kilted young piper, Kim 
Proudlock, led in the head 
table guests to open the ann- 
ual Parent's Night dinner by 
the St, Albert Air Cadet 
Squadron Tuesday evening. 
For the second year the en- 
tire program was managed

it with poise and efficiency.

Winfield of the provincial 
committee, Lt. Col Crofton, 
liaison officer and three of 
the participating cadets. 

F/Sgt. D, White proposed 
the toast to the Queen and 
eight of the cadets paid tri- 
bute to those organizations 
and people who support the 
Air Cadet movement and 
their squadron, Former air 
cadets were honored by Sgt. 
C, Carignan who spoke on 
how cadet training helps 
young men take their place 


as good citizens after leave 
ing the movement at age 19, 
Cpl, W. Eschak paid tri- 
bute to the solid support 
given the cadets by the Cana

St, Albert air cadets and was 
happy to see the boys them-

current Edmonton Kiwanis 
Festival for their perfor- 
mance in the choral societ- 
les class.

Curlers honor champions at banquet 


About 240 curlers attended 
the St, Albert Curling Club 
annual dinner-dance at the 
Club Mocombo last Friday, 
and saw the more skillful 
among them receive trophy 
awards for the season’s play, 

Two things may be said for 
the St, Albert Curling Club: 
It probably draws more 
adults together than any 
other activity in the town, 
and it boasts the wittiest, 
most entertaining master of 
ceremonies likely to be found 
anywhere, 

Bob Hudson had scores of 
awards to present, plus in- 
troductions and announce- 
ments to make, to a large 
audience seated on hard 
chairs through a fair amount 
of time, But far from being 
restless, Bob had the crowd 
in gales of laughter a good 
deal of the time, while mov- 
ing the program smoothly 
along, 

Guests included represen~ 
tatives of the Alberta Curl- 
ing Association, Hec Gervais 
Brier rink, the two high 


school boys rinks who played 
in the Edmonton league last 
winter, Mayor and Mrs, Ray 
Gibbon, and a number of the 
people who havedonated tro- 
phies for annual competition 
in the mens’, ladies and mix- 
ed leagues, Presentations 
were made by the donors or 
by members of the curling 
club executive, 

President Casey Anderson 
spoke briefly, noting that the 
club is fortunate in the 
calibre of hard-working men 
on the executive, making the 
job of the president easier 
and enjoyable, Mayor Gibbon 
spoke of the fine improve- 
ment the Friendly Giants 
Inn had made at the curling 
rink, and the good progress 
made by the club in recent 
years, 

The most coveted trophe 
jes were the championships 
in each of thethree leagues, 
and these went to Anita Rat- 
chinsky’s rink (the North- 
western Utilities trophy for 
ladies club champion), Play- 
ing with Anita were Karen 


Schultz, Henriette York and 
Sharon Kupsch. 

The Kurt Schinkinger rink 
(Simpson Sears trophy for 
mens’ club championship) 
and to Bob Hudson’s rink 
(Veness Oil Agency trophy 
for mixed league champion), 
On Kurt’s team were Ray 


Kremer, Remi Boddez and 
Wally Irwin, Bob had Jean 
Rankel, Tony Rankel and his 
wife Pat, 

Anita Ratchinsky’s foure 
some also won the St, Albert 
Trail Auto Parts trophy for 
supremacy in the ladies

Workers to give 48- 
hour strike notice 


Town employees planned 
to give council 48 hours 
notice today that they intend 
to strike, 

‘This means that we can 
go on strike anytime after 
the 48 hours is up,” said 
Leo Lancaster, representa- 
tive of the Canadian Union 
of Public Employees, 

“We have a meeting set 
up with council for this Sat- 
urday, however, so maybe 
we can Settle it this week-

Mr, Lancaster added that 
the town employees had al- 
ready held one meeting with 
council since ‘he strike vote 
was taken ek ago, in 
which areas { agreement 
and disagreement were 
searched out, 

He expressed a hope that 
a possible strike to take 
effect on Monday could be 
avoided,

The Editor: 

After reading your item 
about the plans for Candy 
Stripers at the Sturgeon Gen- 
eral Hospital, I thought your 
readers would be interested 
in a little background to hos- 
pital ‘teen volunteers, 

The Red Cross course has 
recently been greatly 
revised, mainly through the 
efforts of an Edmonton ex- 
nurse, Mrs, Kath Campbell, 
wife of Dr, R, Campbell. 

As past president and now 
vice-president of the Charles 
Camsell Hospital Auxiliary, 
she was aware of the neces- 
sity for some changes in the 
course, and worked very 
hard to effect this, in colla- 
boration with the Red Cross, 
As a result, the course has 
been adopted for use in all 
Alberta, and soon will be 
used trans-Canada, Amongst

The Camsell Hospital

very proud of the part played 
by one of their members, 


H, Hardie, 


The Editor: 

So! Who needs garbage 
collection in this day and 
age of the automobile? 

If, for one reason or 
another, the citizens of this 
fair town of ours are unable 
to take their own garbage to 
the dump, I suggest that 
council puts the collection 
out to contract, thereby en- 
suring a weekly pickup 52 
weeks of the year. 

Garbage collection on a 
contract basis would also 
obviate the necessity for a 
rather sophisticated garbage 
truck and also one half-ton 
truck, besides decrease ad- 
ministration in the offices of 
the town, 


H, Coleman. 


The Editor: 

By this time perhaps, the 
civic employees of the town 
will be on strike. 

Both the town and the un- 
ion have treated us with a 
barrage of propaganda, 
Facts and statistics omitted 
or manipulated can be so 
used as to prove two quite 
contrary points so these two 
opposing viewpoints are sub- 
ject *o a degree of ckopti+ 
cism, 

However, a conciliation 
board has been held, This 
board had representation 
from both the town and the 
union, Such a board is ina 
position to separate the 


chaff from the wheat and 
arrive at the facts involved 
in such a dispute, The award 
or solution offered by sucha 
board seldom fills the ex- 
pectations of the disputing 
parties - it is a mid-point 
between the two disputants, 
which the conciliation offi- 
cers have arrived at after 
careful deliberation, 

The union apparently acc- 
apted the conciliation board 
award even though the mem- 
bers would not gain the full 
measure of what they fairly 
considered their just due, 

The town authorities re- 
jected the award, perhaps 
mindful of economy and ime 
pressed by the taxpayers’ 
distaste for an increasing 
mill rate, 

As published inthe Gazette 
a dozen ofthe town’s citizens 
have expressed approval of 
the town’s position, I don’t 
suppose it would be too diff- 
icult to find a dozen townse 
men who would favor the 
civic employees working for 
nothing; but I would hope that 
the great majority of St, 
Albert citizens appreciate 
that their own employees are 
entitled to fair and decent 
wages and working condit- 
ions, 

In a page one box in the 
last Gazette the town’s 
mayor suggests that in the 
event of a strike, towns- 
people co-operate by taking 
their own garbage to the 
dump, I would suggest that 
if St, Albert citizens are 
iaterested in getting council 


on the move to a fair and 
Grrert methine ment Ppa an wdacdin 


employees’ contract, they 
take their rubbish and dump 
it on the driveway of the 
mayor or their nearest coun- 
cillor,

our garbage, Next time we

ions from a panel of citizens 

Stating that he had “no 
franchise’’ on the position, 
Mr. Everitt invited anyone 
interested to let his name 
stand for nomination, 

“I'm going to ask the com- 
mittee to set a date fornom- 
inations,’’ he said. He added 
that he hadn’t decided yet 
whether or not he would run 
again. 

Mr. Everitt called the 
meeting’s attention to an 
amendment which he had 
proposed to the Assessment 
and Taxation Act, which 
would allow councils to pass 
bylaws to assess both dwell- 
ing and property owned by 
the ratepayer. 

“This means they would 
assess both of them, but tax 
only that which is the high- 
est,’’ he said. 

A man owning a home 
worth $80,000 on five acres 
of land, would have both the 
land and home assessed but 

would be taxed only on the 
home, 

Mr, Everitt expressed 

SRALAE 

tent in introducing’ this 
amendment because of a 
story which had appeared in 
the Edmonton Journal. The 
Journal account stated only 
that he had proposed that 
councils should be empow- 
ered to pass bylaws that 
would allow them to tax farm 
residences -- without ex- 
plaining the remainder of 
the proposed amendment. 

He drew applause from 
those present when he ann- 
ounced that comments which 
arose over his donation of a 
calf to the St. Albert arena

fund, had prompted him to 
offer a calf to each of the 
other centres in his con- 
stituency. 

“I'm going to donate a 
calf to each in alphabetical 
order,” he said, “starting 
with Alcomdale.’’ 

Also present at the meet- 
ing were Dan Ibsen of Stony 
Plain, northern Alberta dir- 
ector of the Young Social 
Credit Association, and Fred 
Olsen, third vice-president 
of the provincial group of the 
association. 

Mr. Ibsen explained that 
the “young” in the title 
Young Social Credit Asso- 
ciation, referred to anyone 
between the ages of 15 and 
35, adding that the minister 
of education was still eligible 
to belong. 

He encouraged anyone in=- 
terested in forming a local 
branch of the association to 


contact him following the 
meeting. 

Also on hand to address 
the meeting was E, G Ling- 
nau, executive assistant to 
the director of the Social 
Credit League. 

He commented on “minor 
changes’’ in theconstituency 
resulting from boundary 
changes, which he said would 
have no great effect on this 
constituency. 

Mr, Lingnaii also paid tri- 
bute to the energy and dedi- 
cation of young members of 
the Social Credit government 
such as Robert Clark, mini- 
ster of education. 


Entertainment was pro- 


vided by sisters, Lynn and

ROBERT CLARK ON HOT SEAT 


From Page 1 


come in large part out of 
appropriations by the pro- 
vincial legislature, 

Mr, Clark also told Mr, 
Fraser, who asked if some 
consideration should not be 
given to boards to cover the 
purchase of new school sites 
(such as would be required 
in an expanding community 
like St, Albert) that the mat- 
ter was ‘‘under considera- 
tion == but not under active 
consideration at this time.’’ 

John Kaminski asked the 
minister why the new School 
Act, which he termed in 
many ways “‘commendable,”’ 
included there quirement 
that boards must go to pleb- 
iscite for additional funds 
over those provided for in 
the new foundation program, 

Mr, Clark outlined alter- 
natives used in other pro- 
vinces for controlling spend- 
ing of school boards, such 
as the Minister of Education 
regulating spending as in 
Ontario, or a budget review 
procedure as in Saskatche- 
wan. He said that the gove 
ernment had concluded that 
the plebiscite system, under 
which boards must get the 
approval of ratepayers to 
cover expenditures beyond 
what is allowed under the 
foundation program, was the 
most ‘‘reasonable and sen- 
sible’’ manner of dealing 
with rising education costs, 

“The aim is not to cut 
back education programs,”’ 
he said, ‘‘but we feel that 
what is very, very vital is 


that we bring increases in 
educational costs more 


directly inline with the gross 
national product or with the 
ability of the economy to 
pay for these increases.’’ 

In reply to a second que- 
stion from Mr, Kaminski 
regarding teachers being un- 
der the Labor Act, Mr, Clark 
stated that if teachers are to 
have the benefits of negotia- 
ting under the labor act, 
regional bargaining must be 
allowed. Initially, a number 
of boards will probably move 
toward regional bargaining, 
he said, but “after a second 
look’? at the complications 
involved, possibly they would 
not wish to continue with this, 

On the matter of school 
building planning, Mr. Clark 
told Mr, Kaminski that stud- 
ies by the Human Resources 
Research Council have re- 
vealed that schools costing 
up to $18 per square foot 
have not proved better from 
the standpoint of educational 
efficiency than many schools 
costing $14 or $15 per square 
foot. 


Mrs, Hole’s questions to 
the minister centred on edu- 
cational content and the 
make-up of the present 
school system. 

Asked if he felt there was 
a possibility of both Protest- 
ant and Roman Catholic chile 
dren sharing the same 
schools, providing both so- 
cial and economic advant- 
ages, Mr. Clark replied: 

“The legislation whict 
made Alberta a province in 
1905 constitutionally guar- 
anteed that a religious 
minority should have a sep- 
arate school.”’ He added that 
as far as he could see into 
the future, this constitutional 
guarantee would always be 
there. 


THE GAZETTE*EXCHANGE & MART 


Mrs, Hole asked if pro- 
vision was being made for 
special facilities for the 
teaching of ‘overly bright’ 
children, as is the case with 
retarded children, Mr, Clark 
replied that there was no 
section in the act stating 
that school boards must pro- 
vide for this kind of child 
but that boards do have the 
flexibility to set up programs 
for such children under the 
government’s new approach 
to curriculum development, 

Mr, Clark also told Mrs. 
Hole that the curriculum 
committee was presently 
working on markedly in- 
creasing emphasis on Cana= 
dian content in textbooks to 
be used in the province. 

Mr, Kyle queried the mini- 
ster on a provision in the 
school act which would allow 
the minister of education to 
decide the size of school 
divisions, Mr, Clark assured 
him that there is no intention 
on his part to ‘‘wipe out 
half the divisions in the pro- 
vince.’’ The joining together 
of divisions occurs rarely, 
and then it would most likely 
be at the request of thedivi- 
sions involved, he said. 

Mr. Kyle also questioned 
the need for “frills’’ in 
school buildings, asking if 
some method of standardiza- 
tion in school buildings might 
not cut costs. 

Mr. Clark replied that 
school boards are restrained 
in their building programs by 
the fact that the school build- 
ings board approves a cer- 
tain number of square feet at 
$16 per equare footand above 
that amount, local boards 
must go to the ratepayer. 
Mr. Clark said he felt this 
would place a strong curb 
on ‘‘frills.’’ 

Commenting on difficult- 
ies which rural areas have 
in competing with the city 
in educational facilities, Mr, 
Clark told Mr. Kyle that the 
Human Resources Research 
Council is presently operate 
ing pilot projects designed 
to update rural school facile 
ities through the use of 
travelling classes, travell- 
ing instructors, educational 
television and audio-visual 
aids. 

Youngest member of the 
panel, student Marjolane 
Chamberland, asked the 
minister if he could tell her 
how many students in Alberta 
universities had finished one 
degree and then started on 
another, and how this effect- 
ed the costs of education, 
The minister said that he 
had no exact figures on this, 

“It costs the taxpayer 
more,’’ he admitted, ‘‘but on 
the other hand you have 
better qualified individuals’? 
He added that this was a 
question presently under re- 
view by the federal govern- 
ment which pays half the 
cost of post-secondary edu- 
cation, The value of much 
of the research being con- 
ducted in second degree

courses is being questioned, 
he said, 

He also told Miss Chame 
berland that the department 
of education felt that exam- 
inations held at Easter, 
rather than final examina- 
tions at the end of theschool 
year, allowed for better 
vocational guidance for stu- 
dents, as parents and teach- 
ers as Well as students have 
time to assess results and 
decide what course the stu- 
dents should subsequently 
follow, 

To questions posed both 
by Mr, Kyle and a member 
of the audience, expressing 
concern over a sectionof the 
act which calls for teachers 
to work 330 minutes -- or 
less == in aday, Mr, Clark 
replied that he had trust in 
both teachers and trustees 
and he felt that abuses would 
not arise from the wording 
of this section, 

School divisions might 
differ slightly in what they 
considered the length of the 
school day should be, he 
said, but if it was necessary 
to regulate such things in 
the act, there would be no 
need for trustees, 

He also said that the Alb- 
erta Teachers’ Association 
does a good job ofregulating 
its own members, 

To a question posed bya 
member of the audience re- 
garding tax relief for resi- 
dents of the Municipal Dis- 
trict of Sturgeon in view of 
the new university being lo- 
cated in the area, Mr, Clark 
stated that arrangements for 
a erant in liewoftaxes would , 
be made, - 

Mr, Clark concluded his 
session ‘‘on the hot seat” 
by stating: 

“Let no one think that 
because the School Act has 
been passed, this year, it 
will never be changed again’; 
Amendments can be made, 
he added, and problems can 
be dealt with from year to 
year,

Morinville Seed Cleaning Co-op 


Things are really humm-

Cleaning Co-op these days 
as farmers’ grain trucks 
line up waiting to unload 
grain for cleaning. 

Last fall’s unusual bad 
weather lowered the grain 
sample and with poor grain 
prices, farmers were at a 
loss as to what to seed, These 


are two reasons cited for .

Leaves of Yesteryear - history of Bon Accord 


In the Bon Accord area, 
people refer to it simply 
“the book,”’ 

While an outsider might 
be inclined to say -- “What 
book?’’ == -residents know 
the reference is to ‘Leaves 
of Yesteryear."’ 

Subtitled ‘A history ofthe 
Bon Accord District and the 
biographies of the men and 
women who pioneered the 
area,’’ Leaves of Yester- 
year is a handsomely bound 
400-page comprehensive 
history book which “tells 
all’’ about the Bon Accord 
area from the coming of the 
first settlers in 1892 to the 
present. 

According to author-edit- 
ors Jean Chubb and Hilda 
Milligan, the book begun in 
1958 as a Women's Institute 
project, “just dragged 
along’ for a number of 
years, After the WIdisband- 
ed in 1961, an interested few 
kept gathering information 
on local history and family 
biographies. As time went 
on, these “bits and pieces’’ 
filled a small suitcase -- 
then a larger one. 

What might have been just 
another well-intentioned 
project that somehow never 
reached completion, re- 
ceived a shot in the arm in 
1967 when centennial year 
celebrations made people 
everywhere conscious of the 
past. 

It was at this time that 
Mrs, Chubb and Mrs, Milli- 
gan began to work inearnest 
on the book, which was pub- 


lished in December, 1969. 
book from the — wi 


project,’’ they said, ‘but 
nothing was in chronological 
order or edited.*’ 

They started by reading 
every scrap of history they 
could find about the west in 
general and the district in 
particular. They interview- 
ed the people ‘‘who were 
there.”’ 

“We undertook the job just 
in time,"’ said Mrs, Milli- 
gan. “Many of these plo- 
meers have since passed 
away and we couldn’t have 
done it now.”’ 

Accounts of early days in 
the district, written by J. 
Arthur McCrimmon, a local 
man with a keen interest in 
the past, were an excellent 
source of material 

“I'd hate to think how 
many letters | wrote to gov- 
ernment agencies and people 
who could supply us with any 
information,” said Mrs. 
Chubb. 

Two notebooks were cir- 
culated throughout the area 
amd families were urged tc 
set down their histories for 
inclusion in the book. Stores 
of 130 families of the dis- 
trict are recorded. 

A real find and one that 
provided much needed infor- 
mation were the minutes 
from the first school in Bon 
Accord. These covered a 
period from 1896 to 1915. 

“When we started working 
on organizations in thecom- 
munity, we began to have 
some difficulty,” they said 
Complete records were 
difficult to come by and it 
was sometimes hard for 
those involved to remember 
just what happened when. 

Rough typing of the manu- 
script was done by Mrs. 
Chubb, with a final draft by

Mrs, Karl Neilson. 

So impressed were offi- 
cials of the provincial ar- 
chives: with the papers, docu- 
ments and pictures that were 
used as a basis for the book, 
that they requested the mat- 
erial be left with them as a 
permanent collection. 

Surprisingly, neither Mrs, 
Chubb or Mrs, Milligan is a 
native of the Bon Accord 
area, although both their 
husbands are from pioneer 
families. Mrs, Milligan was 
born in Manitoba and came to 
the area in 1932, Mrs, Chubb 
came to Bon Accord as a 
British war bride in 1945. 

Mrs, Milligan, a teacher 
and mother of six, whose 
interest in the history of 
the area was sparked by the 
fact that her husband’s fam- 
ily built the first house in 
the area north of the Stur- 
geon River, said: 

“Tl wanted something for 
my children and something 
for the school children so 
that they could appreciate 
the area’s history. 

I came from England from 
a very old village with a 
castle and a church that was 
700 years old,’’ said Mrs, 
Chubb, ‘“‘but nobody could 
ever tell me anything about 
its history -- so I thought 
surely you can get back to 
the roots of this town which 
is only 70 years old. 

A second boost for the 
project came when the local 
branch of the Farm Women’s 
Union of Alberta, casting 
about for a centennial pro- 
ject, agreed to publish and 


on 


petus to get it done.’’ 

Admitting to ‘‘going out on 
a bit of a limb,’’ Mrs, Lille 
ian Carleton, chairman ofthe 
FWU's publishing committee, 
reports that by the time the 
book was ready for the pub- 
lishers, (Co-op Press Limi- 
ted of Edmonton), the group 
had raised $1,000 through 
bake sales, a walk-a-thon 
and sale of a few books, 
sight-unseen. This money 
was used as a down payment 
on the book’s publication, 

Once the book was in the 
process of being published, 
the pre-selling began ineare 
nest and by the time it was 
completed, another 2,000 
had been raised. 

The book cost about $9.50 
per copy to have printed, 
Mrs, Carleton explained, amd 
copies sell for $10 each 

“About 400 of the 500 
copies printed have been 
sold,"’ she said, “‘and, al- 
though the FWU has ceased 
to exist as a separate entity 
under Unifarm, the commit- 
tee will continue to function 
a5 lomg aS We have any books 
lef to sell.” 

Realizing that book 
would have a rather limited 
market, holding greatest in- 
terest for present and past 
residents of the Bon Accord 
district and their families, 
the committee decided on a 
total printing of 500 copies. 

“We feel that if everyone 
who should have an interest 
in the area, buys a copy, we 
will sell just about the 50 
we had printed,”’ said Mrs. 
Carleton. Through an error 
at the time ownership of the 
publishing house changed 
hands, the plates for the book 
were destroyed, so any re- 
print would have to be by a 


the 


process of photography. 

Both of the author-editors 
express pleasure at the way 
the book has been received. 
The odd minor error has 
been pointed out, they say, 
but on the whole, response 
to the book has been excell- 
ent, 

They particularly appre- 
ciated the encouragement 
and advice they received 
during the writing of the 
book, from noted Alberta 
historian and author, Jim 
MacGregor. 

“He was very generous 
with his criticism and stee- 
red us away from a few 
pitfalls,"’ said Mrs. Chubb, 

Lt,-Gov, Grant MacEwan 
expressed strong interest in 
the book, He attended the 
“‘coming out’ tea for the 
book in December and told 
the authors he felt it was 
one of the best local histor- 
ies of its type that he had 
read, 

“We were a little afraid 
that the book was lacking in 
humor,’’ said Mrs, Milli- 
gan, ‘‘but many people who 
have read it said they thought 
it was hilarious in spots.’ 

Small incidents in theday- 
to-day life of pioneer famil- 
ies in the district are re- 
corded along with the 
sweeping changes that have 
transformed the west over 
the past three-quarters of a 
century. 

“We each had our favorite 
subject,’ Mrs, Milligan 
commented, “Mine was 
threshing. I just got in on 
the tail-end of pioneering. 


When I arrived here there 
was no electricity, no run 
ning water and people still 
used coal oil lamps, Big 
threshing gangs were still 
very much in evidence.”’ 

“Everything one of us 
wrote was checked out and 
rechecked by the other. Ale 
though we each wrote separ- 
ate sections, we always got 
together on the final draft. 
That way, there hasn't been 
too much controversy and 
the book has become a sort 
of reference book for the 
area.’’ 

Asked if there was another 
book in the offing, both Mrs. 
Milligan and Mrs, Chubbre= 
plied with a hearty “nol’’ 
Although Mrs, Milligan does 
plan a family history, she 
says it’s ‘‘definitely not for 
publication, ”’ 

Mrs. Chubb, the mother 
of nine children, does admit 
that she is “rather at loose 
ends’’ since the publication 
of the book, 

“Our nine-year-old does- 
n't remember a time when 
the kitchen table wasn’t litt- 
ered with papers and mat- 
erial pertaining to the book,’’ 

Both agree that there was 
a tremendous feeling of 
relief and ‘sheer joy’’ when 
the book was finally inprint, 
after what Mrs. Milligan’s 
son describes as its ‘“‘two- 
year gestation period.’’ 

And #t’s pretty handy for 
residents of the area tohave 
a final authority to settle 
arguments over who farmed 
such and such a section ori- 
ginally, or who won the liter-

Vic Post takes top 
honors at Science Fair 


For the second year in a 
row Vic Post of St. Albert 
has come away from the 
Edmonton Regional Science 
Fair with top honors. 

A grade 11 student at Paul 
Kane High School, Vic took 
first place in the ‘“‘A’’ sec- 
tion of the tenth annual come 


petition, 
His entry in the science 
fair was entitled “He Ne 


Gas Lasers."’ It's an abbre- 
viation of helium and neon, 
Vic explained 

He uses the lasers in a 
Special photographic pro- 
cess known as holography. 
With the aid of the laser

beam the process produces 
three dimensional pictures 
or holograms, 

Vic will now take part in 
the national competition May 
12 to 16, where he will com- 
pete for the top Canadian 
award and a trip to Europe, 
Last year he won a trip to 
London, England in this com- 
petition, 

“T have quite a few modi- 
fications to make to the pro- 
ject before we go to Hamil- 
ton,"’ he said. “I’m hoping 
to make some improvements 


as competition is pretty stiff 
there.’’

Air Cadets 


FROM PAGE 1 


Cpl. Hutchings paid tribute 
to the St. Albert Lions Club, 
sponsoring body of the 
squadron, saying that without 
the Lions there would be no 
cadet movement here, and 
thanking them for many ways 
they helped the squadron 
throughout the year. 

The St, Albert Civic Ad- 
ministration was honored by 


Piette SATats Attn as 


hard-working and having 
accomplished much in recent 
years in a variety of direc- 
tions. 

Mayor Gibbon thanked 
Keith and said he had great 
delight in listening to the 
young gentlemen in charge 
of the program, Speaking of 
the excellent record of St, 
Albert Squadron he told them 
their parents and the town at 
large was rightly proud of 
them. 

A toast to the parents was 
proposed by Cpl. B. Willas, 
who mentioned help with 
washing and sewing uni- 
forms, monetary support 
when needed, chauffeuring 
and year-around help from 
mothers and parents which 
is much appreciated, 

W. O. Maine introduced 
the guest speaker, Max Ward 
of Wardair, who spoke to 
the boys on a subject of 
great interest to them, avia- 
tion, 

A general picture of what 
a boy of 16 might find in the 
field of aviation in eight to 
10 years was drawn for the 
boys by Mr. Ward, Super- 
sonic such as France’s Con- 
cord now flying, and United 
States Boeing on paper, will 
make Supersonicairlines 
a reality in five tosix years, 
A glamour vehicle will be 
the hypersonic aircraft fly- 
ing at from three to five 
thousand miles per hour. 

Vertical lift aircraft will 
be a reality in the early 
80s, said Mr. Ward, This 
will be a most useful devel- 
opment for an urbanized 
Society’s needs. He also 
pointed out that new air- 
craft are being built not 
only for economic reasons, 
but for national prestige. 


WEDNESDAY, APRIL 


Jumbo aircraft are here 
now and Mr, Ward forecast 
these machines will be 
greatly improved. He asked 
the cadets to be aware of 
the many interesting changes 
taking place in aviation, em- 
phasizing that more sophis- 
ticated machines call for 
more sophisticated opera- 
tors. ‘‘An eight-hour flight 
to England now takes four 
Minutes of physical control 
of the aircraft, And in 10 
years that four minutes will 
completely disappear,’’ said 
Mr. Ward. But the mental 
responsibility of the opera- 
tor will increase at a terri- 
fic rate. He cited the flight 
of Appollo 13 as a graphic 
example of how the rate of 
the operator is changing. 
“Bush pilots are gone -- a 
thing of the past, but your 
boys could be astronauts.'’ 

The way to get into the 
new age of aviation is back 
to school, Mr, Ward stated. 
And the school will provide 
only the foundation from 
which you can operate. 
“Your determination to 
stand up and be counted is 
the main lesson to be lear- 
ned. To say you can do it 
and do it - that is your 
challenge.’’ 

F/Sgt. Fildes thanked Mr, 
W ard on behalf ofthe cadets. 

A special presentation was 
made “to a person,’’ said 
W, O, Maine, ‘‘who has done 
much to publicize the air 
cadet movement in St. Alb- 
ert, and who is responsible 
for the large increase in 
enrolment into the squad- 
ron = Mr, Emie Jamison 
of the Gazette.’’ 

Emcee Maine turned over 
the meeting to President 
Rock Holman of the St, Alb- 
ert Lions Club, Mr, Holman, 
who had welcomed the par- 
ents and guests at the start 
of the program, said he liked 
this annual event, when the 
cadets handled the program 
and the sponsoring body 

could relax and enjoy it. He 
asked the Lions, who were 
present in good number, to 
meet following the adjourn- 
ment and the program closed 
with God Save The Queen

Inglewood's 


“I guess I’m just a frus- 
trated school teacher,’’ said 
Hilda Hardie, ‘I love work- 
ing with children and young 
people,’’ 

As secretary of the Ingle- 
wood Community League, 
Mrs, Hardie has an excell- 
ent opportunity to do just 
that. 

“This is a youth-oriented 
community league, We don’t 
have dances or bingos, but 
when we hear of a new pro- 
gram for kids, we will at 
least give it a try, Right 
now we're running art 
classes for children,’’ 

Mrs, Hardie, who has been 
a resident of the Inglewood 
area for the past 22 years, 
has been associated with the 
community league for six 
years == ever since her 
daughter, Jennifer, now 10, 
was in playschool, 

Part of the reason for good 
participation in league acti- 
vities, according to Mrs. 
Hardie, is the location ofthe 
community hall. 

“Tt’s on the same grounds 
as the school and located 
almost in the centre of the 
community, which is excell- 
ent,”’ 

Presently chief instruct- 
ress of the Inglewood Com- 
munity Pedal Pushers, Mrs. 
Hardie points out that in- 
struction in bicycle safety 
is especially important in 
the Inglewood area, 

“We're bounded by the 
railway tracks, 111(h avenue, 
118th avenue and Groat Road 
so there are four busy and 
potentially dangerous inter- 


Insurers 

demand 

Sturdier 
cars 


Insurers will rapidly in- 
crease price pressure on 
auto manufacturers to pro- 
duce less damageable cars, 
W. O, Bailey, senior vice- 
president of Aetna Life and 
Casualty Co, of Hartford, 
Conn,, predicted in Toronto 
March 25, 

*‘My company and others 
are doing studies comparing 
cars ami we hope to use the 
results to influence manu- 
facturers, We will rate up 
those that are more sub- 
ject to damage and ratedown 
those built with less risk,’’ 

Earlier efforts by the in- 
surance industry to influence 
automotive design have aot 
worked, he told members 
of the Insurance Institute 
of Ontario, The only way to 
get vehicles that are less 
easy to damage and less 
difficult to repair is through 
insurance rates, 

Auto insurance in the Uni- 
ted States has been a loser 
for 10 consecutive years, he 
said, 

The US, cost of living 
is rising by 5.5 to 6 per 
cent a year, but auto repair 
costs and medical and hos- 
pital expenses are going up 
by 9 to 11 per cent, 

“Tf we don’t find a solu- 
tion, I fear that the problem 
will consume us,"’ 

The present reparations 
system for auto insurance 
is no longer workable and |! 
will give way gradually to

sections that our children 
have to deal with,’’ she said, 

Admitting to being more of 
an organizer than an athlete, 
Mrs, Hardie has neverthe- 
less been involved in much 
of the athletic end of the 
community league activities, 
From Nov, to March she 
serves as supervisor of fig- 
ure skating. Inglewood be- 
longs to the Edmonton 
Federation of Community 
Leagues Figure Skating or- 
ganization and 77 children 
from the area were enrolled 
for instruction last year, The 
community league pays half 
the federation fee for each 
of the children taking part, 

The league also encour- 
ages young people ofthe area 
to participate in hockey, 
skating, lacrosse (played in- 
doors at Ross Sheppard High 
School), and, in thesummer, 
baseball, 

It was a member of the 
Inglewood Community Lea- 
gue that revived an interest 
in lacrosse, she stated, add- 
ing that there are now a 
number of communities in 
the lacrosse league. 

Mrs, Hardie spoke of the 
many adults of the area who 
have a strong interest in 
children and who give freely 
of their time to organize 
programs for them. She 
mentioned in particular John 
Robbins who looks after the 
rink, makes the ice, cleans 

the building and also works 
in the concession <= and all 
on a voluntary basis, He does 
it because he likes children, 
she said, adding that she felt 


Mr, Robbins’ contribution 
was probably unique amongst 
the city’s community leagues, 

Mrs, Hardie has been a 
widow since last May and 
states that she has thrown 
herself more into commun- 
ity activities in the past 
year, 

“Tl always feel happy when 
I'm working with young 
people, I may go back to 
work later on, but at the 
moment I feel my daughter 
needs me at home.”’ 

Jennifer, in grade 6, is 
also active in a number of 


MRS HILDA HARDIE 


community activities, 
“We're always on the 

run,’’ said Mrs, Hardie. 
Commenting on the make- 


up of the community, Mrs. 
Hardie noted that as many 
of the apartment blocks in 
the neighborhood do not all- 
ow children ‘‘we have acom~- 
munity of 3,000 homes, but 
not necessarily 3,000 fam- 
ilies,’’ 

Exceptions are the Bel 
Air apartments and the Prin- 
cess apartments, which 
allow children and both of 
which donate to the comm- 
unity league. 

Many of the children in 
the area have working moth- 
ers and a good program of 
‘community league activities 
is doubly important to keep 
these children occupied after 
school, Mrs. Hardie feels. 

Says Victor Kiraki of Ed- 
monton’s parks and recrea- 
tion department, who works 
with a number of community 
leagues in the area: 

“I personally feel that 
Inglewood has quite a succ- 
essful league, The ®xecutive 
is doing a real good job, 
giving thedepartmentex- 
cellent co-operation and ad- 
vertising our programs very 
well,” 

‘Children’s programs es- 
pecially are well attended,’ 
said Mr, Kiraki, ‘‘Participa- 
tion in some adult programs 
is abit slow at the moment, 
but that could be due to the 
time of year, People have a 
lot of outside work todo right 
now,”’ 

Mr, Kiraki stated that 
since he started with the 
city’s parks and recreation 
department six months ago, 
he has been very pleased 


“Didn’t suffer too much” 
say starve-a-thoners 


The 48 hour starve-a-thon 
held by social studies 
classes at Paul Kane High 
over the weekend, would have 
been better -- or worse, 
depending on your point of 
view -- if it had gone on for 
another day. 

This is the opinion ex- 
pressed by Ronald Maine, 
one of the student organizers 
and a participant inthe event, 

‘Another day would have 
brought home the message of 
what it’s really like to 
starve."’ 

*T don’t think anybody 
really suffered too much,"’ 
said Art Rutledge, another 
student who took part in the 
starve-a-thon People 
weren’t reaching the point

“Opponents of such a 
change fear government 
takeover, because they think 
governments will work auto

A talk on drugs by Pros 
fessor Eric McCorkell of 
the department of sociology 
at the University of Alberta, 
held students’ interest on 
Sunday morning. 

David Young, who had 
spent two years in Ghana on 
a government-s ponsored 
project spoke on the situa. 
tion in that country, He was 
able to give students afirst- 
hand account of starvatior 
and privation that exists in 
underdeveloped countries, 

Said Fred Schoenrock, 
social studies teacher and 
advisor to the students in 
organizing the starve-a- 
thon: 

“This entire project 
developed out of the present 
social studies 30 course 
which takes into account a 
unit dealing with the popula- 
tion explosion and the entire 
problem of developing and 
underdeveloped nations, The 
idea for the starve-a-thon 
arose within class discuss- 


“Billy, get your Little 
brother’s hat out of

“I can’t Ma, he’s

you what kind of a year it’s

with the reception he has 
received from the executive 
and members of the league, 

“Their prime interest at 
the moment is in children’s 
programs,’’ he stated. 

Speaking of the various 
activities which are always 
on the go at the community 
hall, Mrs, Hardie said: 

“I try to help out here and 
there, just as everyone does, 
When you’re on the execu- 
tive, you feel you want to 
pitch in,’’ 

“Pitching in’? for Mrs, 
Hardie has meant everything 
from instructing a class in 
babysitting to helping to or- 
ganize a carnival queen con= 
test. 

But she’s not always on 
the instructing end of things, 
A number of articles in use 
in the Hardie living room 
resulted from her participa- 
tion in the league’s home 
accessories course, set up 
in conjunction with the parks 
and recreation department. 

“I'd also have liked totake 
advantage ofthe art instruct- 
ion offered for adults, but 
there just doesn’t seem to be

time,” 

Mrs, Hardie is also presi- 
dent of the Ladies Auxiliary 
of the Charles Camsell Hos- 
pital, 

“It’s quite a small auxil- 
iary -- a working auxiliary 
with not too many meetings,”’ 
she said, “‘Our spring teaon 
May 13 will be our one fund- 
raising project for the year’; 

Here again Mrs, Hardie’s 
interest in children comes to 
the fore. Her favorite acti. 
vity as an auxiliary member 
is arranging outings for the 
children who are patients in 
the hospital. 

Asked for her formula for 
successfully co-ordinating 
so many outside activities 
as well as looking after her 
home and daughter, Mrs, 
Hardie replied: 

“Mostly, you have to be 
an organizer, Then you have 
to have the free time to de- 
vote to these activities, And, 
of course, you can’t ‘blow 
your cool’,’’ 

It’s a formula that seems 
to be working very well as 
far as Mrs, Hardie is con- 
cerned,

Primary objective of the 
Starve-a-thon was to allow 
students to “empathize” he 
Said. It was not set up as a 
social activity, although that 
was part of it, but to give 
Students an awareness of 
What it is like to go without 
food when they’re hungry, 

“Naturally, it was an une 
real experience in away, We 
went into it with fine health 
and a full stomach and we 
left knowing that we could go 
home to a tremendous meal, 
In this sense it was unreal, 
But we have at least gone 
part of the way toward know- 
ing what it is like to be one

national and international 
problems, 

The onus for this whole 
thing was on the students 
and I am very pleased with 
their co-operation, It was 
tremendous, ”’ 

Mr, Schoenrock referred 
to students’ alienation to- 
ward great parts ofthe whole 
educational process, Very 
often they are studying things 
they’re not interested in, he 
stated, 

“Tf students can get in- 
volved in a project such as 
this, then there’s interest 
and enthusiasm instead of 
apathy,’’ 

“It's far better to do things 
in terms of what you’re 
studying,’’ he said, ‘“‘rather 
than just talk about them.”’

Milk in bags 


A major battle is shaping 
up for the Canadian milk 
packaging market, with the 
only sure winner being the 
polyethylene industry. The 
loser = as least as far as 
costs are concerned -- the 
consumer, The fight is tak- 
ing place between returnable 
polyethylene jugs and dis- 
posable polyethylene film 
pouches, in the big three- 
quart market, (Sales of m‘\k 
in three-quart packages acc- 
ount for nearly 50 per cent 
of annual Canadian retail 
sales of 1,300 million gall- 
ons of fluid milk.) The jug 
is giving way tq the bag. 
The new product has come 
on strongly in recent months; 
now accounts for 10 percent 
of three-quart container 
sales,

Report from the Legislature 


By Keith Everitt, MLA 


The third session of the 
16th legislature has just pro- 
rogued and we are now on 
our way home, No one will 
deny that this session has 
been very productive, espe- 
cially as far as new legisla- 
tion is concerned. 

The Wildlife Act, which 
replaces the Game Act, went 
through with hardly an 
amendment being passed, I 
proposed a number, along 
with many of the other mem- 
bers, but it seemed the am- 
endments just couldn’t get 
a majority support. 

The Edmonton Journal of 
Tuesday last annoyed me 
with a report of the amend- 
ment I introduced on the 
Assessment and Taxation 
Act. 

The Journal said ‘‘Keith 
Everitt of St. Albert pro- 
posed an amendment to the 
Municipal Taxation Act that 
municipal councils be em- 
powered to pass a bylaw 
directing assessment of 
farm residences,’’ My ann- 
oyance is not so much in 
what they said as what they 
failed to say. To keep the 
record straight, I introduced 
an amendment which reads 
as follows: 


Rent 


*POWER RAKES 
*LAWN SWEEPERS 


*ROTO TILLERS 
*EDGER/TRIMMERS 


Special 
Fertilizer 
$9.19 
Briquets

Phone 
599-8650 


*FERTILIZER SPREADERS 


9a, Notwithstanding any- 
thing in this act, a council 
may by bylaw direct that 
residences that are farm 
buildings within the meaning 
of this act be valued as if 
they were assessable under 
this act and direct that 

(a) the valuation so made 
of a residence, or 

(b) the assessed value of 
the total land holdings of 
a taxpayer, 
whichever is the greater, 
is to be used as the value of 
the land for assessment pur= 
poses, 

It isn’t difficult to under- 
stand the difference between 
what the Journal published 
and what I actually intro- 
duced, For example, my pro- 
posal was that the MD of 
Sturgeon, if the passed by- 
law could assess both the 
land and residences of each 
farmer and just tax whiche 
ever is the highest, This was 
a resolution adopted by Sture 
geon in 1969 at their annual 
convention, I submit it would 
go a long way towards equale 
izing the tax burden, 

It just isn’t fair that people 

can live in a 40 or 50 thous- 
and dollar home and pay less 
than $50 taxes while others 
are paying anywhere from 
$300 up. My claim was that 
there are too many rate. 
payers getting into a farming 
category when they aren’t 
farmers in any sense of the 
word. 
May I take this opportunity 
to thank the management and 
staff of the Gazette for the 
co-operation I have received 
with the publishing of these 
reports, After almost three 
months of hard work, it was 
somewhat amusing to have a 
sheet of paper land on our 
desk about 10 minutes before 
we prorogued, It goes like 
this: 

“It being 2:30 0’clock, Mr,

Less upheaval 


On Campuses 


There are signs that as 
money, and employment for 
graduates, preoccupy uni- 
versity leaders, student up- 
risings in the country have 
petered out, There is evi- 
dence that the successful 
use of carefully planned and 
executed pressure tactics by 
groups of students seeking 
campus reforms or revolu- 
tions is no longer feasible, 
Student movements this year 
have fallen victim to rapid 
and devastating fragmenta- 
tion, On several campuses, 
ideological differences 
amome reformers have re- 
duced the reform movement 
to dozens of small, weak and 
ineffectual factions, To a 


large .extent this must be an 
indication that ersity ad- 


ministrators and professors 
have moved quickly tocorr- 
ect the most glaring institu- 
tional anachronisms that 
served to unite an otherwise 
diffuse student body, Indeed, 
students now participate at 
almost every level of decis- 
ion-m aking in most Canadian 
universities and curriculum 
reform is now under way on 
many campuses,

Whereas the population 
explosion has reached such 
proportions that an increas- 
ing number of members are 
in favor of sin and against 
motherhood, and 

Whereas the only valid 
solution to pollution is to 
prohibit the use of fossil 
fuels and outlaw industrial 
development, 

Therefore be it resolved 
that this House either urge 
the federal government to 
urge the municipal govern- 
ment to urge the public to 
take immediate action, or 
prorogue, 

The motion was agreed to, 

According to Order the
